So…here’s a boring little video from the inside of a Formula 2 race car.
Watch it. It’s boring. Like a quick parade…for just over a minute. Then, and I promise you this, you will see something that will make you say, “HOLY FUCKING HELL! WTF?!?!”

That was nothing. You should ride in her car when my wife is driving. That sort of thing happens routinely.
Honest to FSM, in the first 10 years of our marriage, she managed to total at least five cars, plus one company car. She has since slowed down after noticing it improved her gas mileage. I’m actually a fan of higher gas prices.
She’s the only person I know who sort of enjoys an air bag to the face, kind of like a carnival ride.

In fact, she gets the good driver discount on her insurance. Not one wreck was shown conclusively to have been her fault.
Still, I have to think she doesn’t pay that much attention to get run into that many times.
I was in my first wreck (I’m 55) this year. The college-age girl who rear-ended me never even touched her brakes. I have to imagine some sort of cell phone or other texting gadget was involved. She was sober.
I wasn’t, but it was so obvious whose fault it was the cops didn’t even test me.

Yeah, I think I saw that same early 20’s gal 2 weeks ago. She was driving a big SUV with a smoke in one hand and was texting with the other. I’m not sure what she was steering with, but it didn’t stop her from aggressively changing lanes every 100M.

I’ll second that “Holy fucking hell!” I mean, you’re just tooling along and suddenly a race car comes flying over your head… from behind! And then all hell breaks loose for a few seconds. That was a nice wakeup call. Thanks for posting that.

Look, Avi, I respect the hell out of you and when you’re at the top of your game you can logically eviscerate people with the best of them, but you are simply wrong here. WRONG, I say! I, in fact, did not say, “Holy Fucking Hell”. I said, “Holy Fucking Shit”. Big difference. The former is an exclamation involving the Christian place of eternal damnation in the afterlife and the latter concerns feces. If you’re gonna blog at least be somewhat close with your predictions. Don’t make me give you a wedgie, mister!
